Evaluation of recombinant human erythropoietin as a promoter of bone healing in cats with femoral fractures.
Article in Open veterinary journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The bone regeneration potential of erythropoietin (EPO) is not yet fully investigated, but some previous experimental studies demonstrated that its application activated the differentiation of osteoblasts and promoted bone formation. Aim: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo) on bone healing in cats with fragmented long bone fractures. Methods: Twelve cats were divided into two groups-control ( Results: All tested blood parameters were within the reference range. A faster fracture healing and full limb weight-bearing were observed in the EPO group, with statistically significant differences with respect to the control group. Conclusion: The obtained results confirmed that the local application of rhEpo promoted bone healing in cats with fragmented femoral fractures and increased bone callus strength without having significant systemic effects.
